Yeah, you're going to need to need to go with the small
blocksize to realise this in vanilla Pd. But a blocksize of one
isn't absolutely necessary, you'll probably get away with 8 or
16 for the frequency ranges of typical plucked/hammered strings.
Also, the patch is extremely simple, so I wouldn't worry about 
the expense too much. Just wrap it in an abstraction/subpatch
so that the rest of your patch can run with a standard 64 block.

Take care not to get caught out by the creation order gotchya for
[s~]-[r~] pairs :) Check the archives on this. As Frank pointed out
recently on a similar topic the minimum delay loop time with this
is actually zero, so an extra [z] wouldn't hurt.
